I didn't get a single nut off my pecan trees last year. Those squirrels were out of control.

I waited too late before declaring war on them. I've now reduced their numbers by about 20 so far.

I've learned my lesson to not let my guard down again.

I still hope to design a squirrel trebuchet.

I used to have a squirrel feeder that used 4' 2x2 and a center swivel.  It would throw the unsuspecting squirrel a good 8' as they tried grab the dangling ear of corn.

Their terms for what qualifies as an "assault weapon" are so broad and vague and in some.cases so bizarre it will allow Libs down the line to say just about any weapon someone tries to own falls under this POS legislation.

It's a defacto gun ban.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION
